Pet care experience
I grew up caring for dogs of various sizes and breeds. My children and I cherish the love and joy of having a pet to care for and play with. I no longer own a dog of my own, however we still want a furry friend to share our lives with.
Reviews
This is our second time working with Michael. My dog Theo loves him and he takes good care of him. He is reliable, professional and punctual. I would not hesitate to reach out to him again
I highly recommend Michael as a dog sitter. He took care of my dog Theo over the weekend and did a great job. He was very attentive, caring, and professional. He sent me regular updates and photos of Theo, and made sure he was happy and comfortable. Theo had a lot of fun. He was very accommodating when the pick up was delayed. Michael is trustworthy and reliable, and I would definitely book him again in the future.
Our dog had another great stay with Michael and his lovely family! We’re so thankful he could take her over the holidays. We knew she was in good hands while we were thousands of miles away and he sent us helpful updates and pics throughout our dog’s stay. Thanks Michael!
Delilah always loves her time with Michael and I have such peace of mind knowing she’s in such great hands!

Safety, trust & environment
There is a lot of space for one or two dogs to play inside our home. When caring for dogs, I will take them for walks in the park across the street or through one of the many walking paths in this area. It's our pleasure to play with your dog; keeping them engaged makes for a fun experience and helps keep their minds off of missing you!

Information Michael D. would like to know about your pet
It's helpful to know what your dog enjoys, as well as hearing about particular schedules or routines that help keep your dog feeling safe and loved. You know your dog's behavior best, so please relay all pertinent information to make their time enjoyable.
A typical day
I enjoy keeping dogs active with walks and hikes in the Fells, as well as more passive time in a park or neighborhood. I'm yet to meet a dog that didn't love playing off leash chasing their favorite ball or toy. It's also good to curl up on the couch and relax together for a bit when needed.
